Description
A THREE PIECE BELLE ÉPOQUE PERIOD ENAMEL CLOISONNÉ BRONZE DORÉ AND ALABASTER MANTEL CLOCK GARNITURE, LATE 19TH CENTURY, IN THE MANNER OF L. MARTI AND CIE., FRANCE AND RUSSIA, the clock surmounted by a lidded lobed urn with scrolled handles on raised plinth over a domed temple form case with an enameled frieze above an arched beveled glazed door opening to a porcelain dial with painted flower festoons and Arabic numerals above an enameled mercury weighted pendulum, within four tapered enameled Corinthian columns on a square plinth enameled base on enameled disc feet, the clockworks stamped "Made in France," "Medaille d'Argent," and with various numbers, height: 20", width: 11 1/4", depth: 15 1/4"; with two Russian style six light candelabra surmounted by a flame finial on a white alabaster pedestal to a tapered alabaster support with leaf mountings issuing six "S" scrolled enameled arms terminating in flat bobèches and relief leaf and berry candle cups, on a tapered socle raised on an egg form white alabaster support with enameled foliate mounts, ending in a circular base and scroll decorated suspended finial with stylized ram's head mask mounts, lifted on scrolled enameled griffin form tripodal legs, height: 23 1/4", diameter: 11 1/2"
Condition
There is some minor wear to the enamel with occasional chip losses, some greenish patina and mild wear to the gilt surfaces. No key present. The candelabra appear to have been assembled together with the clock, and some mounts are slightly loosened, but otherwise in very good stable condition, wear commensurate with age and use.
